Can someone please explain, with a neutral point of view, what is all this debate about.
We know that the bitcoin network is bloated with transactions, and in consequence something must be done.

In a short summary, can you please tell the pros and the cons of the two different ways to proceed with bitcoin according to you ?
Also, what is happening ? I read a lot of shady stories ...

I didn't follow that closely but after seeing the exchanges notice forecasting a HF, I tried to dig into that topic but I only found large quantities of FUD.
Thanks in advance. Smiley
There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, which will follow the rules of the network no matter what miners do. Even if every miner decided to create 1000 bitcoins per block, full nodes would stick to the rules and reject those blocks.

You probably aren't going to get an unbiased explanation. Sorry.

There is a ton of information out there, and most of it takes more than a casual grasp of Bitcoin to even begin to understand.

If you really want to learn, you are going to have to dedicate a fair amount of time reading (and sorting through the FUD from both sides for nuggets of valuable information).

If you aren't the sole controller of your private keys, you don't have any bitcoins.

Allright.

Thanks for your reply. I'm locking that thread.
